MEROE, SUDAN–More royal pyramids stand in the deserts of northern Sudan than in all of Egypt.
For 3,000 years, a succession of African civilizations rose and fell along the Nile River in ancient Nubia, at one point expanding north to the Mediterranean Sea.
Relatively little is known about these peoples. While Egypt hosts up to 200 foreign archeological teams a year, Sudan until recently has averaged 10 to 12.
Among the pioneers is Krzysztof Grzymski, head of world cultures at the Royal Ontario Museum, and known to local villagers as simply "Chris."
